let me tell you a story. when i was 8 or 9, i was up in a tree with my best friend by the park. his family was much more sexual than mine was, his parents had porn, and his mom kinda walked around in lingerie some times even though she was overweight. my family was highly moral, except my dad cursed a lot from working in the woods and being in the navy. my friend asked me if I was circumcised, and I didn't know what that meant. he told me and I realized I wasn't, and felt very insecure and weird, and I can say it was one of the very few times in my life I've lied to a male friend. I ended up bringing it up with my mom somehow (I was super shy) and I got really mad at her for overhearing her talking to her friend -my best friend's mom- about it. she told me I could have it done if that's what I really wanted, and quickly I let it go, it didn't matter to me, even though back then I didn't have the information we have now and definitely wouldn't have considered it. I was very lucky in the first place, as my parents were religious and my father was circumcised. Her thought process was God put it here, so she/they have no right to have it removed. Needless to say I am vocal about the subject now even with my friends if it gets brought up. It is not your choice to mutilate someone just because it is your child, religious or not.
Precisely. This is why I refused to have my son get a circ when he was born. He had a couple of medical issues a couple of years and three years ago (Phimosis and Paraphimosis-talk about painful and heartbreaking) regarding having foreskin. I don't want to put him through the pain of having to go through getting it removed, but if it pops up again as a genuine medical reason, I may have no other recourse. While I understand that there are cultural and religious significance for some people, I see putting a child through that pain as being barbaric. However, if the feminazis, snowflakes, and other SJWs are going to bitch about "FGM," and equality in the same breath; I believe that they should experience female circumcision as males experience their own version of this act.
I was forcibly circumcised as an infant and fucking hate it. I feel violated and dismayed that both my parents and the medical establishment would allow that to happen to me. This was borne of 150 years of crack pot misinformation and deception. Within the last 5 years or so, I noticed that my sensitivity had been tanking and I needed to do something about it.
Since committing to restoration almost a year ago, things feel better, more natural, and I'm able to deal with my emotions (edit: regarding my forced genital cutting) better. I've grown enough skin that my glans is covered almost all the time while I sit, and half the time when I walk. I've no doubt that full flaccid coverage is just around the corner and with that comes the dekeratinization and more sensitive glans.
If you're even slightly curious about foreskin restoration, I'd strongly suggest you check out the subreddit for it, r/foreskin_restoration, and decide if it's for you. Plenty of men have gone through this process to varying degrees, and almost none have had any negative effects.
My only regret is that I didn't start and commit to it when I first heard about restoration when I was about 18, almost 15 years ago. I'd have been done with my restoration about a decade ago had I done that.
I also support a full ban of non-medical genital cutting until age 18, when the person is able to make the decision for themselves.
good for you. It is a barbaric practice that was promoted by crackpots. even wikipedia surprisingly looks to be onside.
The ethics of circumcision are controversial.[1][2][3][7]During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the primary justification for circumcision was to prevent masturbation and intentionally reduce male sexual pleasure,[2][7][8][9][10] which was believed to cause a wide range of medical problems.[1][2][7][8][9][10][11]Modern proponents claim that circumcision reduces the risks of a range of infections and diseases as well as conferring sexual benefits.[1][2][3][12] By contrast, opponents, particularly of infant circumcision, often question its utility and effectiveness in preventing such diseases,[1][2][3][7][12][13] and object to subjecting newborn boys, without their consent,[3][7][12][13] to a procedure they consider to have dubious and nonessential benefits,[3][7][12][13] significant risks and a potentially negative impact on general health and later sexual enjoyment.[7][12]

That thread is entirely justifying butchering babies but "girlez have it worse"
Typical man hating by the bitter dyke crowd.

to me, the skin on the underside below the head is the most sensitive, basically the whole foreskin. used to love me some tongue ring girls.

yeah, my teenage daughter has never complained that i didn't get her clitoris excised, so i guess that's fine too.

What I want to know is why women have such a strong opinion about this subject?

This is the million dollars question.If you really answer that you understand the human female nature.

I dont think the biology in the OP is entirely correct, but in any case, it's important we give men the choice to get circumcised or not.

women: My body my choice!
Also women: You don't get a say on your penis!

Fuck those people. So quick to call misogyny out but they have no problem wallowing in misandry. Pretty shitty.
